EXEED showcases ET8 range-extender technology at Dubai’s EV World 2026
Al Ghurair Mobility, the exclusive UAE dealer for EXEED, showcased the EXEED ET8 at EV World, the Dubai International Electric Vehicle Exhibition and Conference, held at Dubai World Trade Centre from 10 to 12 November 2026. The exhibition marked the model’s first public appearance in the UAE and introduced visitors to EXEED’s range-extender electric vehicle technology.
The EXEED ET8 REEV uses an electric motor to drive its wheels, while an onboard engine generates electricity to support the battery and extend the vehicle’s driving range. Unlike conventional hybrid systems, the engine does not directly power the wheels. The vehicle maintains electric propulsion, with the range extender providing additional electricity when required. It also supports plug-in charging.
Performance and range-extender technology
The ET8 REEV combines its range-extender system with an all-wheel-drive configuration delivering 469 hp. The vehicle accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 5.4 seconds and offers a combined driving range of 1,100 km under the WLTC test cycle.
Its range-extender engine has a reported thermal efficiency of 44.5% and generates approximately 3.4 kWh of electricity per litre of fuel.
Comfort and technology inside the cabin
The six-seat ET8 REEV includes several features designed for long-distance travel. The first- and second-row seats are equipped with a 10-point pneumatic massage system that uses air cushions instead of mechanical rollers. Both rows also offer three-level seat ventilation.
A Bed Mode allows the front seats to recline fully, creating a 1.8-metre resting space. The cabin also features a 30-inch ultra-wide integrated display combining the infotainment system and digital interface.
Other features include a 9.2-litre refrigerator capable of cooling to -18°C and heating to 50°C. Second-row passengers also have access to a Zero Gravity Mode on the right-hand seat, which reclines to 113 degrees.
EXEED expands its presence in the UAE
The ET8’s appearance at EV World gave UAE audiences an opportunity to explore the model and understand how range-extender technology can support electric mobility while offering additional driving range.
Through its participation in the exhibition, Al Ghurair Mobility continues to introduce automotive technologies to the UAE market. As EXEED’s exclusive dealer in the country, the company is focused on expanding the brand’s local presence and familiarising customers with its vehicle portfolio and electrified mobility solutions.
